The Canadians having scaled the cliffs were surprised to find the Germans Fancy Dress party frocks, so commandeered them as a war prize.

There is a place for everyone in the modern Army . Do not lie about your particulars lest you end up in the wrong regiment .

Regiments no longer being mustered under geographic draws, more along the lines of what kind of drawers are being worn .

Just because they stripped him of his commanding officers uniform I don’t see why the rest of us in the Queens Regiment should lose ours
